I've got no more stories
To tell you here tonight
I've relived all my glory and
Should've left this bar while it was light
Oh but Annie babe, those smokes are gonna wreck
That creamy skin of yours
I'll give you 5 to 1
That you don't even taste them anymore
Anabel I hope you split this town
Before it kicks the daylights out of you
Babe, you're like a jewel I found
I've never known a heart near as true
And I would sooner swallow fire
Than be the reason for your tears to fall
It's coming to the wire
You better go before you lose it all
Hey, look at all these poseurs
We think the world owes us when we're kids
My hair was long, my hands were strong
I could show you pictures... I already did?
Then we'll isten to this saxophone
Sweet as the day they laid it down
You know, it kills me when you get that look
Like you just discovered sound
Anabel I hope you split this town
Before it kicks the daylights out of you
Oh babe you're like some jewel I found
I've never known a heart near as true
I would sooner swallow fire
Than be the reason for your tears to fall
It's coming to the wire
You better go before you lose it all
I said it's coming to the wire
You better go before you lose it all
I say you better go before you lose it all
